SAFET Y INSTRUCTIONS.
• It is required to check the installation information on the nameplate.
•
Please remember that the
UPS is an electrical
energy generator
, so the
end-user must take all the
needed cautions against direct and indirect
contact
.
Its power supply relies on the batteries, and AC mains,
which are included or excluded in the case or cabinet of the
electronic parts of the equipment depending on the model and/
or extended autonomies.
When the equipment is ON, and the batteries are connected to the
equipment and its protections, if any, are turned “On,” the fact
that the UPS is connected or not connected to mains is irrelevant,
and neither is the protections of mains. The outlets or output
terminals will supply voltage when there is energy in the battery set.
•
Compliance as regards to “Safety instructions“ is
mandatory, being the user the legal responsible
regarding
to its observance and application. Read them carefully and
follow the stated steps in the established order, keep them for
future consultations that may arise.
•
If the
instructions are not in total or partial understood
and in special those ones referred to safety, do not
carry
on with the installation or commissioning tasks, because there
could be a at a
risk of your or other persons’ safety
, being able
to make
serious injuries even the death
, also it can cause
damages to the equipment and/or loads and installation
.
•
The local electrical regulations and the different
restrictions of the client’s site can invalidate some
recommendations included in the manuals. When discrepancies
exist, the user has to comply with the local regulations.
•
This equipment must be
installed by qualified
personnel and for personnel with no specific
training
, just act with the help of this manual.
A person is defined as
qualified
, if he has experience in
assembling, commissioning and perfect control operating of the
equipment, if (s)he has the requirements to do the job and if (s)he
has read and understand all the things described in this manual,
in particular the safety indications. Such preparation is
considered valid if it is certified by our
(S.T.S.)
only.
• Warning labels have to be placed in all primary switches, installed in
areas far away from the equipment, in order to warn the electrical
maintenance personnel of the presence of a UPS in the circuit.
The label shall contain the following text or an equivalent one:
Before operating in the circuit.
Isolate the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
Check the vo
ltage of al
l terminals, including the
earth main protective earth.
Risk of UPS backfeed voltage.
